How long until I see effects?

Pain relief is typically felt within 2–4 weeks; fundamental joint reinforcement requires at least 3 months. For degenerative arthritis, taking it for 6 months or more can slow cartilage degeneration.

Can I take it with Western painkillers?

Most NSAIDs can be combined. Gwanjeoldan treats the root cause while we aim to gradually reduce painkiller dosage. Please tell us about any current medications during consultation.

How is Gwanjeoldan stored?

Store in a sealed container in a cool place. Refrigerated, it can be stored for up to 6 months. Refrigeration is recommended in summer; avoid moisture.

⏰

Dosage

It is hard to state a fixed period in advance, so we review progress every 2 to 4 weeks and adjust. Herbal medicine cannot restore cartilage that has already worn away; the aim is pain management and keeping daily function. What actually matters is thigh strength training and weight management.
